The document seems to say that it is possible to publish a DS record
even if the corresponding DNSKEY is not present in the child zone, if it
is "by design and can can be demonstrated not to affect the stability of
the TLD or the root zone". Actually it seems that at least cz. has such
a DS record published in the root zone at the moment.
